Re: [Libvirt-cim] [PATCH 1 of 2] Initialize libvirt early so that we avoid the backend register race

We actually have locks in libvirt (or rather we reuse the ones from libxml2) so we could try to do some locking in Initialize, but I really prefer a model where the init is clearly separated. Looks fine to me even if I don't understand the details of how that patch works.
